Passport Experiences

Ramblings Along the Way

These are not required for completion of your Passport; all the "location" stamps are, though! Availability details below are subject to change.

Main Passport Experiences

See a Movie – We have 9 movie theaters, which show either first-run or recently-run movies.

Play a Game – Our pubs and properties have different combinations of billiards, shuffleboard, pinball machines and/or darts for your gaming enjoyment. See our full list of locations with games.

Tour the Coffee Roaster – Tours with one of our coffee roasting staffers are Monday through Wednesday, 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. – All the coffee throughout McMenamins is roasted in small batches at a central location–a quaint space located at 421 NE Knott Street in Portland. Come see the roaster and beans from our partner farm in El Salvador that are stacked and used here. Tours with our two coffee roasting staffers are Monday through Wednesday, 2 p.m. to 4 p.m., at this site.

Attend a McMenamins Brewfest – We offer 8 brewfests every year, all of which highlight our brewers' creativity and a variety of beer styles, Amber to Wit. Each one features live music, chats with our brewers and food specials as well. Visit our Brewfest page for full details.

Attend a History Pub Presentation – Attend a History Pub Presentation - We feature ongoing free "History Pubs," which are lively, compelling talks where you'll learn more about local or regional history while enjoying a frosty pint or two of handcrafted ale and pub fare. Not all events on the list qualify, so check the individual listing to be sure. You'll find upcoming history pubs among this list of events.

Relax with a Spa Treatment – Ruby's Spas are known to cast a spell of contentment over all who enter. Both full-service locations, at Edgefield and Grand Lodge, offer indulgences ranging from hot stone massage to pedicures, facials to foot therapy. Spa guests are invited to dip in the heated soaking pools as well.

Soak in a Pool – Six of our locations have pools for your enjoyment: Crystal Hotel, Edgefield, Kennedy School, Grand Lodge, Anderson School and Old St. Francis School. The last four are open for the general public to use for a fee. Otherwise, the pools are for hotel overnight guests and those with appointments at Ruby's Spas.

Play Golf at Edgefield or Gearhart – Our two golf courses – Edgefield Pub Course in Troutdale, outside of Portland; and Gearhart Golf Links at the Oregon Coast offer gorgeous scenery. Edgefield is home to two par-3 courses that meander through the 74-acre property. Gearhart is an 18-hole public course. Both are open year-round. Sorry, Disc Golf at the Grand Lodge does not qualify.

Attend a Specialty Dinner – Depending on the season, we feature Scotch dinners, a James Beard dinner, progressive dinners, a dinner with band The Dandy Warhols, and more. All feature pairings of our spirits, wine or beer with custom, seasonal menus created by one of our chefs–what a feast!

Tour the Edgefield Winery – Tours are typically available at 3 p.m., Monday though Friday (sorry no tours on weekends or major holidays). – Since it opened in 1990, the Edgefield Winery has ripened into one of the Northwest's leading wineries, with more than a dozen releases, and a much-visited cellar and tasting room. Take a short tour to learn more.

Tour the Distillery at Edgefield or Cornelius Pass Roadhouse – Tours are typically available at 2 p.m. daily at Edgefield and most weekdays between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. at Cornelius Pass Roadhouse (sorry no tours on major holidays). – Take a short tour of our first distillery, at Edgefield in Troutdale, Ore., to see how McMenamins spirits are made in this former vegetable storage area. Or visit the Cornelius Pass Roadhouse Distillery in Hillsboro, Ore., established recently but featuring a centuries-old still.

Tour one of our 25 Breweries – Our brewers are busily brewing your favorite beers, but love to talk about their craft. Tours are typically available during the day, Monday-Friday at select times, which vary seasonally. Contact the specific brewery if you're on a tight schedule and are hoping for a tour!

Try a Wine Flight, Try a Distillery Flight & Try a Beer Flight: Flights range in price and selection at our pubs, but are typically offered on our beverage menus and contain small taster glasses of both standard and seasonal selections. One flight order earns one stamp. Cheers!

Passport Insert Experiences

The Passport insert includes eight more experiences, which have the same payback of a $20 gift card for every 4 experiences completed. These experiences can be used in combination with the existing experiences on pages 4-6 and can be inserted into your current Passport. Note that you can't collect experiences in more than one Passport at a time. Inserts are available at all locations for $5, and include:

Sample the Beer at a Limited-Edition Beer Tasting – We host tastings year round.

Ride a Bike to the Pub – Take a selfie of you next to your bicycle, wearing your helmet, and show your server (sorry no motorcycles).

Buy a Bottle of McMenamins Spirits – We have 13 locations where bottles are sold. Only one stamp available per bottle sold.

Have a Pint with a Pup – Many locations allow dogs; Cornelius Pass Roadhouse (among a few others) does not. One dog earns one stamp. Living, breathing pets only.

Attend a Friends & Family Night – We support local causes with 50% of a pub's proceeds from a designated night donated to the beneficiary! Spend $10 in food and/or beverage and get the stamp – as well as feel good. Food and beverage purchase must take place during benefit hours.
